"The course content and the visits connected to the content were very insightful and interesting. I have gained a further interest in human rights issues as a result of the course. The trip to Iguazu Falls was one of the best experiences I have had in my life, the place was beautiful and walking around the falls and the other nature activities were so much fun! Other highlights for me were to walk around the city, exploring the city sights and the markets."

"As a psychology and criminology student, it was the perfect combination of both my majors, and sparked an interest in law that I never expected to have. All in all, it was an unforgettable experience and one that'll influence the rest of my life - and I would do it all again in a heartbeat."​​​​​​​Carlos IbaviosaForensic Psychology(The Netherlands)

​​​​​​​"Travelling to Austria was one of the best decisions I've made in my life. The teaching staff were fantastic, supportive and understanding of needs as we transitioned to life in Graz. The friends I made and the excursions we went on were amazing! I loved every minute and I must admit I have been home nearly two weeks and already had a bit of a cry because I miss it already... I am so grateful I got to experience studying and travelling at the same time and despite my first fears that it would all be very full on, it was absolutely fine and not too heavy."
